DIY FRIDAY: PAINTED PUMPKINS ON PEDESTALS

With Halloween only a few weeks away, it's time to pull out all the Halloween projects! Next week I'll be sharing a bunch of DIY Halloween costume projects, but for DIY Friday today I wanted to share a fun and easy Halloween craft: Painted Pumpkins on Pedestals!

I've seen a million painted pumpkins out there in so many varieties, but stacking them and putting them on pedestals makes for a fun and unique look. Try different sizes and heights of pumpkins and pedestals so you can put them all around your house -- short and wide ones as a centerpiece on your table, big and tall ones on your hearth, little tiny ones for your mantle...the possibilities are endless!

TASSEL CHANDELIER TUTORIAL

Last week, Sara, from Tell Love and Chocolate, and I hosted a Halloween party. We'll share a full recap of the party later this week, but today we've teamed up with Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft store to bring you a super cool Halloween tutorial of a project we did for the party -- a Tassel Chandelier!

Sara came up with this super cool idea and it looked amazing hanging above our long table under the twinkle lights.

My favorite thing about this project is that it's so customizable -- try different sizes of branches, or different sizes, colors, and numbers of tassels to make your chandelier completely unique. Also, they're a gorgeous fixture for above your table, like we did for our party, but you could also mount it above your fireplace, on your door in place of a wreath, on your wall, or above a door...the possibilities are practically endless!

DIY GOLD THANKSGIVING TABLESCAPE

With Thanksgiving only a few weeks away, I teamed up with Jo-Ann Fabric and Crafts today to share a fun and super easy tablescape. The thing I love about this table decor is that it looks so luxe and intricate, but it didn't cost very much and was super easy to put together. You'll impress all your guests and still have time to cook the turkey!

The key to creating a gorgeous table scape like this is to pick one color (or two at the most). Filling the table with lots of gold pieces makes it feel rich and full, but it doesn't get overwhelming or cluttery.
